    FTW,

    Lin had fans say racist things toward him in his career.

    None of these fans were Rockets fans. Rockets fans can never be racist towards any player because they love Yao Ming and Hakeem Olajuwon and Vernon Maxwell and Ron Artest and Matt Bullard and Luis Scola.

    Rockets fans love the world.

    So when you say that you never saw any Rockets fans be racist towards Lin, I believe you.

    Never cared for what they say
    Never cared for games they play
    Never cared for what they do
    Never cared for what they know
    And I know

    So close no matter how far
    Couldn't be much more from the heart
    Forever 99ers, that's who we are
    No nothing else matters

    Came to this thread (you know, a thread about Lin as a LAKER), to find out why he hasn't been playing, and all I get is the same ol' racism talk.

    Typical.

    Lin does not play and Lakers win.

    Another blow to the oft heard "Lakers are holding back Lin's minutes because they are tanking" theory as preached by his fanatics.

    Ummmm...the 6ers are tanking my man. They get the Lakers pick if it falls out of the top 5.

    Any team can win against the sixers who are in the tanking mode. I'm not impressed. :rolleyes:

    I'm impressed with how Jordan Clarkson, a 2nd round rookie has outplayed Lin and is putting the team on his back leading them to victories - something Lin never did despite being given the chance.

    First it was Bev outplaying Lin and now it's Clarkson, all at a fraction of the $15MM he is paid this year.

    It said lin has an infection.
    I hope it's not the same walker virus that the lin fans have.

    I think it’s great that you are impressed by a Lakers player. The Lakers appreciates your support.
    Btw you sound ignorant and jelly with this statement. No one believes or care what you have to say anymore because it’s too little, too late for your smear campaign.

    With or without him, the Lakers are still losing, they need more quality players like a decent center and reliable power forward. But it is fun watching the kid dunk and he sure protects the ball unlike Lin.

    Lakers management have to be asking themselves if its even worth making an offer to Lin.

    Jordan Clarkson is a rookie, younger, and has shown improvement.

    More importantly, he has already shown that, unlike Lin, he does not play scared.

    Considering that Lin is pretty much the same player he was three years ago, it makes more sense to invest the $$ and time on Jordan Clarkson who is actually working on his game and showing improvements. No guarantee that Clarkson will pan out, but as of right now, he is a safer investment.

    He's infectious alright, and the Lin strand is said to be running rampant in Los Angeles. :cool:

    Are you implying the only reason that the Lakers are playing Lin more of late is because they wanted to tank and he is the best option for tanking?

    And somehow without Lin, they failed miserably on that goal?
